Thanks for the feedback.  Each of the CIFS mounts has its own TSM node and
Windows domain account to access their mount/files. Each of these CIFS
mounts have also been moving/changing Windows domains which has triggered
full backups, as expected. Just wanted to make sure that changing this
"service machine" Windows domain didn't trigger another full backup of
everything.
